What I dislike is that the main window opens as normal but then a pop-up tells me that there is an update so It has to close and load back up after the install/update. That's dumb. Better get the launcher check for updates and then after it's ok, press the play button to load the resource-eating window to come on.
You didn't even read the Dev Blog, did you?
DevBlog wrote:One reason for using a Launcher for doing updates is we can get away from having to start EVE Online client up, then shut it down while the update is being applied and then starting EVE Online back up. It's wasteful, and a little bit confusing, to have to spend time on starting up the game, in order to detect we need a patch and to download it, then to shut it down immediately afterwards so that the patch can be applied. With the Launcher, updates are applied to the EVE Online client before it is ever started up, thus reducing the overall time spend patching by just a little bit. |

Today when trying the new launcher I see a newly coloured screen (Crucible colours instead of blue), but when I click "Play" I get the Crucible logo, and then nothing, it just exits. This last worked when the launcher was first announced on this Dev Blog.

nVidia GeForce GT 330M 256M Out of interest, what version of the Launcher are you using? It should say in the top of the window when it starts.
Says "EVE Online Launcher v.1.0" at the top and doesn't try to patch (though the first time I launched it did some patching). |

Tranquility release worked flawlessly and is at 1.04. The Singularity patcher finally updated to 1.04 (stayed at 1.0 with no new updates until the 1.5 release today) as well instead of being stuck at 1.0, but launches me into Tranquility rather than Singularity. So perhaps the Singularity Launcher got to 1.0 and switched over to Tranquility, which didn't have the new Launcher and had nothing to launch/update.
Neither of these updated to 1.05 and I just ran them before posting this. |
